That was a letdown. I'm not convinced she ever really made the connection between what she was watching and herself. She looked like a typical bored, fidgety 3-year-old who'd rather be anywhere else but stuck in a room filled with people and dolled up in fancy clothes.

So her looking straight, then looking up, then being fixated at something "up" means...

Seriously this made me so angry when he pulled that card. You know, I have no issue whatsoever voting for someone that is a different ethnicity, but when they go ahead and try to make it an issue or use it as leverage, I lose all desire to support that person despite the fact that they may be a great candidate. Watching the DNC was like watching a really bad Lifetime feel-good movie.

Why is that bad? It is a part of their identity. Even Karl Rove admitted that the idea of bringing up heritage was a good thing because it shows all Americans have a common desire to do well in this country.

I'm not sure. This thread is a trainwreck, but that was cute. It did kind of look like she was preening for the cameras. It's funny enough by itself, but then your mind goes to, How would a little girl learn to act like that? And you imagine her mother telling her to "flip your hair, wet your lips when a camera is pointed at you!" (with appropriate gestures) and it's funny as hell.

Castro may run, but he doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell at even getting the nomination.

"I heard he's a distant cousin of Fidel Castro", millions of people will say, and that will be that. I mean, look at what so many American's did with Obama's middle name. That was just a taste of the derp to come if this guy gets the national stage for more than a hand full of news cycles. America is simply too broken to have even the most basic of fact discovering conversations these days.

That noted, one of the Castro brothers better grow a goatee and maybe some pointy sideburns soon or I'mma gonna continue to get confused.

/Do chicks dig on guy twins the same way guys go gaga for the likes of the Doublemint Twin girls?//Always wondered but was kinda afraid to ask.

As a twin from a small town, yes they do. At least when you're together. Once we started working and were separated all the time, everyone forgot about me and assumed I was my brother. Yay lack of identity.

Ah, cool. TY for replying and to all who did the same.

I was a actually born one of a set of identical twins but my twin died 3 months after birth so I've often had these little pomderings and "what if" moments.

/No conscious memory no, just stories and a couple pictures and a grave.//Again, thanks for all replies on this admittedly oddish off topic question.///A'ight. Awake too long again. Off to sleep. Will wake for DNC thingy.

Angry Buddha:NateGrey: cousin-merle: I think that Democrats should keep nominating candidates with awful names. Democrats are the party of Castro, the party of Hussein, the party of Hitler. Vote Bob Hitler in 2024!
